OUR HISTORY

The Shades Valley YMCA was one of the first suburban branches built, in 1968. It was remodeled in 2012.

OUR LEADERSHIP

Volunteering is one of the essential ways the Y engages people and helps them to be healthy, confident, and connected to others. The role of volunteers distinguishes the Y as a place where everyone can take an active role in bringing about meaningful, enduring change in the community. The Shades Valley YMCA is driven by an ongoing assessment of community needs and led by a board of community volunteers. Program volunteers assist with educational programs, mentorships, youth sports, and special projects, as well.

OUR COMMUNITY

More than a place, the YMCA is a cause. With programs from A to Z – like athletics to advocacy, dance classes to disease prevention, volleyball to volunteerism – we don’t just strengthen individuals, we strengthen our community. Our organization impacts so many people in so many ways. Everyone has a role to play. Together, we can achieve so much more.

We are located near Homewood, Vestavia, Bluff Park, & Cahaba Heights.

OUR OUTREACH

The Y recognizes the importance of working together to create lasting social and personal change. We have the community’s trust to convene, partner and support community collaborations with schools, government agencies, faith-based organizations, businesses and others. At the Shades Valley YMCA, partnerships are developed, and nurtured, with area community service providers.
